*The Official 2011-12 NBA Thread*

Michael Jordan missed a fast break dunk before. It happens. I don't think Smith is great but I don't think he's as bad as you make him out to be. He's an average player who on occasion can get hot and burn you for 30.

Also, you tend to exaggerate a lot. It's like everyday you come out and say so and so sucks, he's the worst player or coach in the sport, he blows.

 

I don't recall doing that much at all. J.R. Smith blows though.

 

He's not a guy you win with.

 

I do. To each his own.

 

What have the Knicks consistently won? Also we all know the Patriots had NO FANS until they started winning. It's not like they had fans, lost them and gained them back. They literally had almost no fans. No real issues with Yankee fans and I dont watch hockey.

 

I agree about Philly fans. Pretty unbearable themselves. I'm not from there however.

Not even close is Lou Williams the same player. And I hate Lou Williams. There offensive games are nothing alike. Lou Williams has actually been a pretty good defender for us this year. J.R. Smith might be the worst defender in the entire league. J.R. Smith is also a whiny *****, a thug. They're both chucks, the comparison stops there. And even then, Lou Williams has a 53.5 TS%, JR Smith 46.4 TS%. That overrated Carmelo guy? 50.1% It sure was fun watching him obliterate the Knicks though.

 

Time to start giving blame where blame is due.

A total of 26 36 win lose record for Carmelo Anthony since he came in new york.

It's a losing record for a "should be" franchise player who signed $65 million dollar ( earned $18,520,000 in 2010-2011 Season ) and came in New York Knicks sacrificing these players:

Wilson Chandler

Danillo Gallinari

Raymond Felton

Timofey Mozgov

and giving their 2014 first round draft pick.


2010-2011 season Playing for the Knicks

Games Played reg season 27. W 14 L 13

Minutes = 36.2 Points Per Game = 26.3 Field Goal Attempt per game = 20

FG% = 46% 3point % = 42%

FG% = 40% 3Pt % = 30% REB 5.7 ASSIST =3.8

STL = 1 TO=2.8.


The Fact is losing record with Knicks when he plays since he came 26 36.

Not great, not good, its bad, for a Player who the Knicks waited and sacrifice promising players surrounding Amare before Anthony came.

Amare and the Knicks doing pretty well before he came.

He fck up everything also this season, Knicks without Carmelo Anthony this season they are 6 4.

With him 12 19.

So if he didn't fck up the Linsanity then he didn't fck up Amare and the gang too lasts season.

Then What did he do to make the Knicks better??!

Can't see any. Oh its a Process.....

He already played 62 games for the Knicks all in all.

As a result, Knicks winning 41% with him.

Knicks winning 34 27 WITHOUT HIM 55%


So what now.

How much time will the Knicks willing to take in order to see things clearly and what to do.

With those % above, Carmelo Anthony is not a super star that can carry a team right.
New York Knicks when Carmelo Anthony plays last season and this season combined they got 41%.


New York Knicks when Carmelo Anthony not playing since last season and this season combined they got 55%

Its way too far.

You got Amare without him they win,You got Lin without him they win,WTF this guy is all about then,Can't they teach this guy to be effective, make him a 6th man or whatever he can do that can benefited the whole team in a big way.

 

My issue is with Melo, not Dolan or D.Williams.

 

I could write a book hating on that idiot. Merely pointing out just ONE of Ny's problems.

 

I understand the frustration with Carmelo, but to solely blame his wrong, imo. However, you have to look at the result with Carmelo here. Is it in the best interest of the team to trade him?

 

It absolutely is.

Also dont get me wrong, I know Melo isnt whats wrong with this team. I just also know he's not what's RIGHT.

 

You can't solely blame him, but you can give him a lot of the blame, which he deserves. And yes, he should be traded. The return won't be nearly as good as what they gave up, but who cares. Carmelo isn't a fit in New York. He's not a player you can win with on any team really.

 

These offensive rebounds are hilarious. 23 so far??

 

Knicks are currently the #9 seed. If the playoffs started today, the Knicks would play the 1985 Celtics.

 

If the Knicks failed to make the playoffs, would that be the most embarrassing non-playoff team ever? Would certainly be fitting for a fanbase that tried to shove Amare in our face. Then shoved Carmelo in our face. Then shoved Tyson Chandler in our face. Then shoved Jeremy Lin in our face.

 

So humble though

 

If you traded Amare...the team would instantly be better.

that is the spin I have for today.

 

Kris Humphries unleashed beast mode last night.

 

Word today is that Melo hates D'Antoni....

more drama.

I got some info as well.

Source: Bulls have offered a deal that includes Taj Gibson for Tyreke Evans. Omer Asik was NOT included in the deal. (Bulls are on crack.) If they include Asik..it is a decent trade for both.

 

Great Scott!

 

Why would Chicago trade for Rose 2.0? And Melo should be traded IMO, he doesnt fit, it isnt working.

 

Warriors traded Monta Ellis, Ekpe Udoh, Kwame Brown and a pick for Andrew Bogut and Stephen Jackson.

Wow. The Warriors make the Dolphins look amazing at trades. Between Bogut's and Steph Curry's ankles, they may have two healthy sticks between them.

I sort of think that Monta should have netted the Warriors more.

 

But they managed to give away Kwame, which is sort of a plus for any team.

 

Kwame was actually okay for the Warriors up until he got injured. Plus, he was an expiring contract if I am not mistaken, so he was a good trade chip.

Even injured and not playing, he was better than Biedrins. Biedrins is God awful.

The Bucks play the Warriors on Friday too. Ellis is going to go OFF.

 

Sounds about right. Ellis doesn't have that much trade value. He's a chucker who plays absolutely no defense whatsoever. I honestly have no idea why the hell the Bucks thought this was a good idea. Brandon Jennings and Monta in the same backcourt? That's worse than Curry and Ellis...

Interesting...

 

Bynum is BEASTING tonight.

14/17 33 points, 15 rebounds.

Double OT game between Lakers-Grizzlies. Fun game. These teams are very evenly matched right now, and it shows.

Make that 15/18 and 35 points.

Screw it, make the Magic take Pau for Howard at this point. LOL. Bynum may be playing himself into staying in L.A.
